  Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Paney Show.
• 0:11
  Speaker 4: Coming up tonight, the Victorian government embroiled in a fresh
• 0:14
  Speaker 4: corruption scandal. Adam Crichton will be here to come in
• 0:17
  Speaker 4: the day's top headlines. The brilliant Douglas Murray will join
• 0:21
  Speaker 4: me shortly to discuss everything from the war in Ukraine
• 0:24
  Speaker 4: to Disney's work film Disaster, and later in the hour
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: we'll have the latest from the US, including the astonishing
• 0:31
  Speaker 4: rescue mission by Elon Musky's SpaceX that saw two stranded
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: astronauts returned safely to Earth and left He's losing It
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: features one of the all time greats from the lunatic
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: Asylum known as MSNBC.
• 0:47
  Speaker 5: Stop the hammering out there?
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: Who's got a hammer? Where is it? Where's the hammer?
• 0:53
  Speaker 6: Is it?
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: On the go up on the other floor.
• 0:54
  Speaker 5: Somebody go up there and stop the hammering. Stop the hammer.
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: But first Victorian Premier just To Allen and Police Minister
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: Anthony Carbines are at the center of serious corruption allegations
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: brought before Iback and the Statesmutsman by former Deputy Commissioner
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: Neil Pattison, who alleges he and dumb Chief Commissioner Shane
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: Patton were victims of an unlawful conspiracy. The Herald Sun
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: reports the central allegation in Patterson's complaint to IBAG is
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: that Premier Allen, Minister Carbines, the Department of Premier and
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: Cabinet Secretary Jeremy Mole, and Commissioner Rick Nugent conspired to
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: get rid of him and the Chief Commissioner because the
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: pair had given frank and fearless advice to the government
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: in a bit to protect the community.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Joining me now for more on this, the Senior Fellow
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: and Chief.
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: Economists at the Institute of Public Affairs, Adam Crichton. Adam,
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: we have a respected former deputy commissioner here accusing the Premier,
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: accusing the police minister of corruption and misconduct in public office.
• 2:05
  Speaker 7: Well, certainly, I think at the very least they're probably
• 2:07
  Speaker 7: victims of politics.
• 2:07
  Speaker 6: I would say.
• 2:08
  Speaker 7: I mean, it strikes me that there's rising crime in Victoria.
• 2:11
  Speaker 7: There's probably pressure on state labor from federal labor to
• 2:14
  Speaker 7: do something about it, and so sacking the commissioners probably
• 2:17
  Speaker 7: makes sense from a political point of view, But the
• 2:19
  Speaker 7: broader point here, and I think this is the one
• 2:21
  Speaker 7: that the Victorian public would be picking up on, is
• 2:23
  Speaker 7: that there's something dysfunctional with the police office here.
• 2:27
  Speaker 6: It's not functioning correctly.
• 2:29
  Speaker 7: The number of police in this state I just checked
• 2:31
  Speaker 7: is the most of any state per capita. Two hundred
• 2:33
  Speaker 7: and ninety eight per hundred thousand in Victoria and two
• 2:36
  Speaker 7: hundred and twelve per hundred thousand in South Wales for instance.
• 2:39
  Speaker 7: That's a very big difference. And yet crime here is
• 2:41
  Speaker 7: out of control. So something is going awfully wrong and
• 2:45
  Speaker 7: I think the state government needs to take control somehow.
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: And fix it.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: And morale within the police force is very low.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: You speak to officers, they don't have much faith in command.
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: And there's been accusations for several years now, particularly under Labor,
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: that the police force has become politicized. We saw that
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: throughout COVID, but it's also outside of the COVID era
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: where police have repeated messaging with Premier Andrews or Premier Allen,
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: and yet it hasn't saved the Chief Commissioner.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: It seems if these allegations are accurate.
• 3:23
  Speaker 7: Look, certainly it's probably worth pointing out the bail laws
• 3:25
  Speaker 7: too that were relaxed here. I mean that would you
• 3:28
  Speaker 7: would think disheartened police officers if they're just arresting people
• 3:31
  Speaker 7: and then they get released again a few weeks later.
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: So that could explain some of the crime wave here.
• 3:36
  Speaker 7: But yeah, certainly things need to be done, things are
• 3:38
  Speaker 7: to change now.
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: Fresh polling from Redbridge has shown that voters believe that
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: Peter Dutton and the Coalition are best suited to manage
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: our relationship with China, but the figures hren't great for
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: either leader here. Twenty seven percent back Peter Dutton compared
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: to twenty five percent who believe Anthony Albanize in his
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: government are best placed to manage this relationship with China,
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: and fifteen percent say or they have little faith in
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: either le So I don't know how.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: Much we learn from this, but it.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: Is certainly an issue that is perhaps not a top
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: tier issue, but it's one that Australians still care about
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: a great deal.
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: Yeah, well, look it should be a top tier issue.
• 4:19
  Speaker 7: I mean, in recent weeks we've seen these Chinese military
• 4:22
  Speaker 7: exercises just off the Australian coast.
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: That is somewhat concerning.
• 4:25
  Speaker 7: That should suggest that we need to spend more on
• 4:27
  Speaker 7: our defense and that's something at least I think that
• 4:30
  Speaker 7: the Coalition is at least talking about lifting our GDP
• 4:33
  Speaker 7: spending to two and a half percent of GDP. We
• 4:35
  Speaker 7: at the IPA think it should be three percent of
• 4:37
  Speaker 7: GDP because of the growing security threat.
• 4:41
  Speaker 6: But look the twenty seven.
• 4:42
  Speaker 7: Percent and twenty five percent that you just mentioned fairly similar.
• 4:45
  Speaker 6: I mean, if if they'd rung me up, I would.
• 4:47
  Speaker 7: Have said the Coalition probably because at least during COVID
• 4:49
  Speaker 7: they had the backbone to stand up to China and
• 4:52
  Speaker 7: ask about the origins of the virus. And I think
• 4:55
  Speaker 7: that was a good thing, and certainly it's been proven
• 4:57
  Speaker 7: correct in hindsight given what.
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: We know now.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: Absolutely now, the International Olympic Committee has been forced to
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: grant the Queensland government a one year extension beyond its
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: usual seven year deadline for the in principal sports program
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: to be agreed upon because well, politicians continue to bick
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: out over the venue plans for the twenty thirty two
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: games in Brisbane that I had been blamed on adam
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: nearly four years of political procrastination by Labor Premiers Steven
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: Miles and Anastasia Palache, and it's been labeled as embarrassing
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: for Brisbane and for Australia. We really do we care
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: what the IOC think.
• 5:41
  Speaker 7: Well, look, you know they've had twelve hundred days up there.
• 5:43
  Speaker 7: I understand to work out this plan. That's a long
• 5:46
  Speaker 7: time and I think it's just a plan they want.
• 5:47
  Speaker 7: It's not actually the facilities, it's just a plan. Two
• 5:51
  Speaker 7: hundred days that is a lot. I think it is
• 5:53
  Speaker 7: embarrassing for Australia that the deadlines had to be tweaked.
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: I mean they still have a lot of time. What
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: if it's six years or something, seven years or something
• 5:59
  Speaker 6: like that.
• 6:00
  Speaker 7: But we've just had the embarrassment of the Conwealth Games
• 6:03
  Speaker 7: being asked in the city here in Melbourne, so we
• 6:06
  Speaker 7: don't want to see that again. So yeah, look they
• 6:08
  Speaker 7: just have to pull their finger out. That's the bottom line.
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: And in good news for Victorian taxpayers. Acting those games
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: I think still cost us about half a billion and
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: we're paying for is it Scotland to hold the game?
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: So we're paying for them.
• 6:20
  Speaker 7: Well, we've got one hundred and sixty billion of death
• 6:22
  Speaker 7: here so that's nothing.
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: So yeah, I don't know how they can hold it
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: for a few hundred million, but it was going to
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: cost billions to hold it here, so that's never been
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: adequately explained. Now I do love Housing Minister Clara O'Neill's
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: Instagram work.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: She is prolific.
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: I don't know how she has time to look at
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: her portfolio because she is just churning out video after
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: video on TikTok on Instagram. It's all over the place.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: And this next one is brief, but it's amounts to
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: essentially buying the votes of young people or anyone who's
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: got a hex step. Hey, guys, important message, don't forget
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: that flavor winds the election.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: On the first of June, twenty percent of.
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: Your hex stet is going to disappear like that.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: She's doing videos in the car now. The last one
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: I showed earlier in the week she was in the laundry.
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: I don't know she had a cameraman in the cupboard
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: or she had some sort of tripod set up.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Very very creative work. But there you go.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: Big discount off your hex stead, which obviously the taxpayer
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: is not going to get the money that you were
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: supposed to pay. So this is reminiscent of what the
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: Democrats we're doing in the US.
• 7:30
  Speaker 7: It's straight out of Joe Biden's playbook, and obviously that
• 7:32
  Speaker 7: did not work. I Mean, the first point from a
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: political point of view is these people are going to
• 7:36
  Speaker 7: vote labor anyway or green, so I don't even know
• 7:38
  Speaker 7: why they're trying to bribe them politically.
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: But it's also terrible policy.
• 7:41
  Speaker 7: I mean, we know study after study shows that people
• 7:44
  Speaker 7: go to university earn way more than everyone else, and
• 7:47
  Speaker 7: so why should they be subsidized through the tax system
• 7:50
  Speaker 7: by everyone else. I mean, the fees are already subsidized,
• 7:53
  Speaker 7: they're already low. And frankly, my personal view is we
• 7:56
  Speaker 7: have too many people at university. The fees should be higher,
• 7:58
  Speaker 7: so we get fewer going.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Well, we have so many junk degrees. This isded. There
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: used to be a time where.
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: You'd go to university and whatever course you did helped
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: you get a better job, and there was some method
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: to it all. Now you're getting these junk degrees, a
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: lot of the arts degrees, not just arts, and you
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: have a student saddled with debt, sold false hope.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: The taxpayer picks up a huge bill.
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: And they've been brainwashed a book.
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and they come out with green hair and just
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: very nutty ideas. But the Liberals are also joining in
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: on the social media campaigning.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Let's have a look at what they came up with.
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: This is doctor Katie Allen, the Liberal candidate for Chisholm
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: in Victoria.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: I want to electrify the Ashpn pool.
• 8:47
  Speaker 8: That doesn't mean electrify.
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: The pool, it means electrify the gas pub And that's
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: because locals have told me they want action on climate change.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: They want to create energy transition. And if we do electrification.
• 8:58
  Speaker 9: Of the gas pubs that heat the poor here at Ashburn,
• 9:01
  Speaker 9: that will help bring down about six hundred tons of the.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: Mission each and every year.
• 9:05
  Speaker 7: What's not to like about that?
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: It's about a cleanage transition.
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: You know, I don't even know what to say. I
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: don't even know what to say. I mean, at least
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: Claire O'Neill's ad is probably going to get a few votes.
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: It's going to speak to people who personally care about that.
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: This what we're going to change the heating of the
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: pool from gas to electricity. People in the community are
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: in uproar about it. I don't think anyone in the
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: community has brought this up. I think a few activists
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: who seem to have the ear of liberal politicians, have
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: brought this up.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: But I know that area well and I.
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: Would be shocked if it's even a top thirty issue.
• 9:42
  Speaker 7: Well, I just hope she reads the comments under the
• 9:44
  Speaker 7: Instagram post. As you could say, most people are saying, oh,
• 9:46
  Speaker 7: what on earth are you doing? But I mean the
• 9:50
  Speaker 7: particular swap she's suggesting is a microcosm of the whole
• 9:52
  Speaker 7: economy and just how absurdly expensive it is to be
• 9:55
  Speaker 7: swopping out gas for electricity in these large infrastructures. I
• 9:59
  Speaker 7: mean it costs an APPS fortune, yes, and that's even
• 10:02
  Speaker 7: if it's achievable, and it's not going to make any
• 10:04
  Speaker 7: difference to the climate whatsoever. And Australia is on track
• 10:08
  Speaker 7: to fail in its target since twenty thirty targets, So
• 10:10
  Speaker 7: it's all just totally pointless virtue signaling.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: Pointless virtue signaling. We've got a perfectly.
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: Well functioning gas system heating the pool and we're going
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: to rip it out to a place of electricity when
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: this state is sitting on hundreds of years of gas
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: reserves it's estimated. So yeah, it's nappy stuffed. But that's
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: the Liberals for you. Sometimes in this state. Adam Kristen,
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: thank you for your time. Thanks joining me now is
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: one of the finest thinkers of his generation. Best selling
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: author Douglas Murray Douglas. Let's start in the Middle East,
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: where the fragile ceasefire in Gaza has been chattered Israeli
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: Prime Minister Benjamin Nettina, who has said the authorized the
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: renewal of military action against her mast after their failure
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: to release hostages or abide by the conditions of a
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: US proposal to extend the ceasefire. This military action has
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: been condemned by the likes of the Saudis, Qatar, Egypt,
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: a number of countries in the region, all very predictable,
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: But Douglas, Israel is also facing heavy criticism from France
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: and Ireland and a number of other European countries.
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: What do you make of that?
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: What do you make of this refusal to unders from
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: so many in the West to understand what Israel is
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: facing right now?
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Well, it's sort of part of the course. Unfortunately, Hamaz
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: has repeatedly broken its side of deals in the stage
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: one of the ceasefire agreement. We saw that, not least
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: in its obscene handover ceremonies of Israeli hostages, including its
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: obscene parading of the coffin of Israeli babies in front
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: of jubilant crowds in Gaza the other week. On top
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: of the war craft that Hamaz Is committed by abducting
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: and torturing and killing Israeli citizens, It's of course continued
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: to commit war crimes during this phase of the ceasefire deal.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Phase two of the ceasefire deal, by the way, has
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: always been a problem because it requires Hamaz to hand
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: over all the remaining hostages, as they should have done
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: on October the eighth, twenty twenty three, but it requires
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: them to do so and for Israeli troops to withdraw
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: completely from the Gaza.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: The problem for that is, of course, is that Hamaz,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: although it's been significantly degraded, is as we've seen from
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: these obscene handover ceremonies, not completely destroyed in Gaza, and
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: there is therefore a likelihood inevitability that Hamaz would continue
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: to rule or misgovern the Gaza, which is intolerable to
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: the Israelis because the Israelis had two stated war aims
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: from the beginning of this war to get back every
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: hostage stolen from their homes by Hamaz and two to
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: destroy Hamaz, and you just can't allow Hamas to remain
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: in power. The Israelis can't the various countries in the
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: region condemned. That is completely unsurprising. That's sort of what
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: they have to say, even as in some cases they're
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: urging Israel on the fact that France would criticize Israel
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: among other Western countries is also unsurprising. Sadly, it'll be
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: interesting to see next time France fights a war, when
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: it does, whether it holds its army to the kind
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: of accountability that the Israelis do theirs. My own observation
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: of French military action in the Cote Diuvoirs, in the
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: Middle East and elsewhere is that they do exactly what
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: they want and they don't listen to any international condemnation. So,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: you know, sad as it is to say, perhaps the
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: Israelis should ignore the French, just as French tend to
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: ignore the world.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: That's good advice there.
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: I want to ask you about the Russian Ukraine war prisions.
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: Lensky we know has accepted the USP still and earlier
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: today the White House released details of President Trump's discussions
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: with Vladimir Putin Douglas. Trump is pushing the Russians to
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: agree to an unconditional cease fire, but so far Putin
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: is only ordered his military to adhere to a thirty
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: day cease fire on Ukraine's energy infrastructure.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: Zelenski says he fears the Russians don't want an end
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: to this war.
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: Douglas, what do they have to gain by extending this
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: mutually disastrous conflict.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Well, what Russia has to gain is that they will
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: hope that Western support for Ukraine runs out or runs down,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: and that they can slowly increment, whether or not during
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: this presidency of Trump's, or whether during a future presidency
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: continue their warrant to take over the whole of Ukraine
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: as they tried to do in twenty twenty two. I mean,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: it's extremely hard with agreements with people like Putin, not
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: that there are that many, but we have quite a
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: number of dictators in the world now. As always, it's
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: hard to know what that word you can trust, because
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: the obvious thing is absolutely nothing. Zelenski is answerable not
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: just to Western political alliances that are supportive of him,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: but it also of course has to be having the backing,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: the support in the end of the Ukrainian public and
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: indeed the Ukrainian army who are fighting on whereas Putin
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: doesn't really have to have anyone's support. It's just himself
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: in his own view, along with a small number of
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: people who around him. And so then you know, you
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: have this sort of thing of well, what if Putin's
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: word can you trust? And I don't think anyone who's
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: ever dealt with him or ever seen the way he
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: deals would think that you can trust Putin very much.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: The promise not to attack energy and other infrastructure is
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: not a very useful promise from Vladimir Putin, given it
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: that it's one he's given only within recent weeks and
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: promptably done exactly what he said he wouldn't do. He
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: gave another assurance some time ago that the Russians would
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: not attack Ukrainian energy infrastructure, and then the next night
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: it actually, whilst I was there, they did exactly that.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: So it's extremely hard. President Trump is trying to negotiate
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: a final piece, and I think should be admired acknowledged
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: for doing so. But it's an extremely difficult deal to
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: pull off, and we'll see.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: It is extremely difficult to pullow.
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: As you've explained to the UK, You've written about this issue,
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: the attacks on free speech, free expression. The Starma government
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: there wants a working definition of the term islam of phobia.
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: I could help them with that, but I don't think
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: they're going to like my suggestion. You've argued that islamophobia
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: laws are just censorship, another attempt to invent special rights
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: for just one faith group. What do you say to
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: those who argue Britain's Muslims need further protection.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Well, I think it's pretty outrageous for lots of reasons.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, one of them is that British Muslims have
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: the same protection as any other citizen in the United Kingdom.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: You're not allowed to harass or attack or attack pieces
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: of worship or buildings or anything else. And those laws
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: exist for everybody of any faith none. And the problem
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: about this attempt by the Labor government, with a really
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: disastrous former Conservative MP leading it to set up this
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: commission that's going to tie to identify so called Islamophobia,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: is among other things, is simply not going to work.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Nobody's ever been able to satisfactorily define Islamophobia because it's
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: almost impossible. In fact, it is impossible to draw a
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: line between you know, well, among other things, to allow
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: it to remain legal to say anything critical of the
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: religion of Islam, or anything that seems to offend any
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: large Muslim group or indeed any individual Muslim. I mean,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: when people in the UK, as in other Western countries
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: start talking about his Lamophobia laws, among other things, I
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: really want them to answer the question of why it
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: is they are so obsessed with this non issue of
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: defining an absolute and definable term, and why they don't
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: spend more time, for instance, instead of talking about this
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: fake phobia talking about I don't know, the school teacher
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: in Backley in the North of England who remains in
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: hiding several years after he was accused of blasphemy by
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: local Muslim leaders in the North of England for talking
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: about cartoons of Islam's founder Muhammad. I mean, I wouldn't
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: mind if the government was looking into Backley Grammar School
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: a phobia for its teachers, or the many other things.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: And how about the I mean, what about looking into
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: why one of our MP's David Amis, was slaughtered by
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: a jihadist. A couple of years ago when he was
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: meeting constituents. I mean, are there more protections that the
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: rest of the population can have against people driving cars
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: into crowd, shouting alo akba and so on. Are we
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: allowed to talk about the intimidation of journalists, writers and
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: others across Europe and citizens, teachers, all sorts of people
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: or are we just going to always have this pandering
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: to a small community that makes itself extremely vocal and unfortunately,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: as I said in that piece in the Telegraph, has
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: this tendency to say, instead of we are ourselves going
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: to separate out the extremists in our faith from everyone else,
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: instead of doing that, say how can we better protect
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: our faith from any external criticism? I think this is
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: a disastrous to go down and I'm afraid that the
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: government will discover that in due course.
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: Well, it seems to be all about submission here. It's
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: pandering and it doesn't end in a good place. I
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: can tell you that from someone who escaped in Islamist country.
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: The pandering leads just to more demands and yeah, and
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: it's bizarre at a time when we've had this explosion
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: in anti semitism in the UK that there's so much
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: focus on his homophobia, so perhaps I don't know, look
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: at where some of that anti semitism comes from.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Right absolutely, I mean this is this is one of
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: the things is if you identify, for instance, the fact
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: that significant numbers of Islamic hate preachers have a mosques
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: up and down the countries since October seventh preached the
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: most rancid hatred of Jews and encouraged and here we
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: get into the real bit that should be illegal, and
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: she encouraged the violence of terrorists groups like Hanaz. Where
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: do you what says? Do you get to when even
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: highlighting that which isn't highlight enough could, instead of being
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: a legitimate complaint about extremists in a minority faith group
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: be said itself to be a thought crime or a
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: hate crime. They will never wail to work this out,
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: these self appointed phologians, like these idiots and the British
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: government and the former idiot conservative MP. They'll never be
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: able to do it, and they will never be able
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: to draw as final line as they think they can,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: because such a line does not exist.
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: Well said, Now, let's talk about something a little bit
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: more frivolous tonight. We have the Melbourne premiere or preview
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: of Snow White, Disney's latest version of the classic fairy tale,
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: but it's a woke reimagining and Douglas, who wrote in
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: The New York Post that Disney's seems to be quietly
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: terrified of how this project will fare, so much so
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: that they are pretty much hiding the star of the movie,
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: Rachel Zegler.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: And if you want, you'll understand why.
• 23:01
  Speaker 10: The original cartoon came out in nineteen thirty seven, and
• 23:04
  Speaker 10: very evidently so. There is a big focus on her
• 23:08
  Speaker 10: love story with a guy who literally stalks her.
• 23:13
  Speaker 6: Weird.
• 23:13
  Speaker 10: Weird, So we didn't do that this time.
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: Oh gosh, Douglas.
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: This remake is reportedly to have cost more than two
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: hundred million, and Disney seemed too scared to properly promote
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: this movie.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: It's quite Disney has had a terrible run a bit
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: because it's still as a studio trying to pump out
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: the sort of material which might have been briefly thought
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: to be a good idea in I don't know, the
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: summer of twenty twenty, but really looks horribly dated and
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: actually misreading situation now. I mean, you know, I think
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: I've said to you before reading. But in general, when
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: they do these remakes and they're done by people who
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: hate the original, know the snow White just has to
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: be the woman she knows she can be and the
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: leader she relieves she can be. Maybe you should just
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: invent a different story and call it something different. And
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Disney seemed to know that they've got another stinker of
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: a movie here. I might be wrong, but they seem
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: to know, rather like they're pretty woke remake of Peter
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: Pan a couple of years ago that bombed at the
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: box office. Disney clearly know that they've got to silence
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: their star, and that's why last week, the huge launch
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: of the film was in the middle of nowhere in Spain,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: at a castle that was said to have inspired the
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: original cartoon. The castle in question is far away from
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: most people. About one hundred people were invited, which you
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: can't say is the average sort of movie premiere set
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: up I mentioned in my post column. But as well
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: as sending her to a far castle, you can't help
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: thinking that Disney's executives must have been wishing they could
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: also give the start a poisoned apple that would set
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: her to sleep for many years, since she didn't appear
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: in front of the world press again anytime soon, and
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: diminish the movie she's meant to be promoting.
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: Oh, I'm sure they have market tested the reaction to
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: Rachel Ziglara and found it to be enormously negative, So
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: we were going.
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: To understand why they try to hide her. But you
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: are so right.
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: If you want to have this empowering story about a
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: woman who doesn't need a prince to save her, it's
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: all about her career and finding herself whatever, write a
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: new story. Why do you want to trade off the
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: snow white title and then completely change the story that
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: people have loved for generations. Douglas Murray, you and I
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: need to get into Hollywood and just straighten that place out.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: Thank you for your time tonight.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Stelta Come.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: Lefty's Losing ad class. The latest from the US, including the.
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: Astonishing rescue mission by Elon Lusks' SpaceX me Horowitz is
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: up next. You're watching the Reader Panney Show, and it's
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: time for Lefties Losing It and brace yourselves. I have
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: an all time great Lefties Losing It clip coming up shortly,
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: But first we've seen actor and Lefty Losing It regular
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: Alec Baldwin have multiple Trump induced meltdowns. We've mocked his
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: antics repeatedly on this segment, but even I felt a
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: little bit sorry for him watching this next clip.
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: Watch how this lefty.
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: Wife, Hilaria who identifies as Latin but she's actually not Latin.
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: Listen to how she speaks to Alec, her husband.
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: This is rough, folks. Winner, God, when I'm talking, you're
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: not talking. No, when I'm talking, you're not talking. This
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: is why.
• 27:04
  Speaker 11: Yes, well, Ha's like just cut him out of the show.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: Is great, you're a winner.
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, when I'm talking, you're not talking. No,
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: when I'm talking, you're not talking. Oh look at that.
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: Look to cam Rights looks a little bit haunted.
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: If that's how she talks to him on the red
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: carpet in front of the media, imagine what's happening behind
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: closed doors. And no wonder he's losing it on a
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: regular basis. Now to geriatric democrat Chuck Schumer, who appeared
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: on the View where his levels of lefty lunacy intensified
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: further to a point where he mocked those who want
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: to keep more of the money they've earned. He mocked
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: those who want to see a reduction in taxes and
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: red tape. Watch this and you'll understand perfectly why the Democrats,
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: Well they're pretty much unelectable, with an approval rating sitting
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: at twenty nine percent.
• 27:53
  Speaker 12: And you know what their attitude is, I made my
• 27:55
  Speaker 12: money all by myself. How dare your government take my
• 27:59
  Speaker 12: money from me? Don't want to pay taxes? Or I
• 28:02
  Speaker 12: built my company with my bare hands. How dare your
• 28:04
  Speaker 12: government tell me how I should treat my customers, the
• 28:08
  Speaker 12: land and water that I own, or my employees. They
• 28:13
  Speaker 12: hate government. Government's a barrier to people, a barrier to
• 28:17
  Speaker 12: stop them from doing things. They want to destroy it.
• 28:20
  Speaker 12: We are not letting them do it, and we're united.
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: They think they own you.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: They think you wanting to keep more of your own
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: money is somehow selfish, but they taking a chunk of
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: your wages to waste on LGBTQ activism is I don't
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: know righteous to CNN now, where the hosts ask this
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: imbecellic question suggesting Tesla dealerships being five bombed and Tesla
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: is being vandalized is just a form of resistance. Indeed,
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: she wonders whether this is what resistance should.
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: Look like like?
• 28:52
  Speaker 8: If you are attacking tesla's or dealerships, going beyond vandalism,
• 28:58
  Speaker 8: that that could be an act domestic terrorism. But I
• 29:02
  Speaker 8: do want to ask about this as resistance. Is this
• 29:05
  Speaker 8: what resistance should look like?
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Talking about CNN?
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: Here is former anchor and sufferable hysteric Don Lemon, and
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: is that reminiscing here about CNN's golden age during the
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: COVID era.
• 29:18
  Speaker 13: The highest point of CNN was during COVID and we
• 29:20
  Speaker 13: had COVID and George Floyd at the same time and
• 29:24
  Speaker 13: Donald Trump, and that was the height. That was the
• 29:25
  Speaker 13: highest ratings, the most profitable of CNN, And so it
• 29:29
  Speaker 13: was amazing to be there. People watched every night and
• 29:32
  Speaker 13: they sort of relied on us because you were stuck.
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: Sounds like torture, stuck at home listening to fact free
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: propaganda from CNN about COVID, BLM and Trump. Gosh, now
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: this may be the cringest clip of the week. Watch
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: this man and I used the word man loosely here.
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: This lefty thought it was a good idea to film
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: this and post it online.
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: I've got to say, bless these clowns, because if they
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: didn't do this, if they didn't volunteer this content.
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: This segment wouldn't exist.
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: Oh, I just love that the slow motion, the looks
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: to camera. That's a real life David Brent right there.
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: I'm sure that clip is going to terrify megatypes everywhere.
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: Now to more toxic masculinity, this time from MSNBC and
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: Kat Lawrence O'Donnell, who goes on a frankly ludicrous and
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: xenophobic grant about Elon Musk.
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: The bigotry here is eye opening.
• 30:38
  Speaker 14: Elon Musk does not understand the country where he now lives.
• 30:42
  Speaker 14: Elon Musk would fail by a wide margin a high
• 30:46
  Speaker 14: school ap American history test. He grew up in white
• 30:50
  Speaker 14: South Africa, going to a segregated elementary school in high
• 30:53
  Speaker 14: school where he learned nothing about American history, American law,
• 30:57
  Speaker 14: American free enterprise. Elon Musk is such a bad salesman
• 31:01
  Speaker 14: that he was stupid enough today today to bring even
• 31:05
  Speaker 14: more attention to the latest disturbing challenges the Tesla owners
• 31:12
  Speaker 14: are facing, thanks entirely to Elon Musk.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the world's richest man, a genius who just engineered
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: the return of stranded astronauts from space, is just a
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: dummy who doesn't even understand business.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: Well done, Lawrence. Just brilliant analysis there from you.
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: You know, I think I liked you better when you
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: were having meltdowns about hammers.
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: This is an all time great clip. Guys, enjoy Stop
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: the hammering.
• 31:46
  Speaker 5: Stop the hammering. Stop the hammering out there?
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: Who's got a hammer? Where is it? Where's the hammer?
• 31:54
  Speaker 6: Is it?
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: On?
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: The go up on the other floor. Somebody go up
• 31:56
  Speaker 5: there and stop the hammering. Stop the hammering. I'll go
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: down to the for myself and stop and keep the
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: commercial break going. Call Phil Griffin. I don't care who
• 32:15
  Speaker 5: the fuck you have to call. Stop the hammering. Empty
• 32:25
  Speaker 5: out the control room and find out where this is
• 32:28
  Speaker 5: going on. It's either there or there or out there somewhere.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: That will never not be funny.
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: It's there there, It could be all over around there.
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: Did they ever find out who was behind the hammering?
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: Now? This next story is astonishing.
• 32:46
  Speaker 4: It's so big that I think I'm going to start
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: a new segment called the Golden Age.
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: We'll start it next.
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: Week because we are at the start of a golden
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: age in America. Earlier today, to NASA astronauts who were
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: stranded in space for more than nine months.
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: That were supposed to be there just for a week.
• 33:04
  Speaker 4: And it wasn't NASA that rescued them today, it was
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: Elon Musk's space X. It was audacious, it was high stakes,
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: it was magnificence. Let's first hear from the astronauts why
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: they were still in space.
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: Here.
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: They thank Elon Musk and Donald Trump for the rescue mission.
• 33:23
  Speaker 7: We're coming back before long, so you know, don't make
• 33:25
  Speaker 7: all those plans without me.
• 33:27
  Speaker 11: I can tell you at the outset we have all
• 33:29
  Speaker 11: of us have the utmost respect for mister Musk, and
• 33:32
  Speaker 11: obviously respect and admiration for our President of the United States,
• 33:36
  Speaker 11: Donald Trump. We appreciate them, We appreciate all that they
• 33:39
  Speaker 11: do for us or human space flight for our nation.
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: And earlier today the rescue mission was completed successfully. The
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: astronauts returned to Earth safely, landing in the Gulf of
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: America of Tallahassee, Florida.
• 33:56
  Speaker 7: And splashdown Crew nine back on Earth.
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: Copy slash down, We see mein shoots cut nixt Alex
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: Butch Sonny On behalf of SpaceX. Welcome home, Welcome home.
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: Indeed, let's bring in journalists and filmmaker Army Horowitz Army.
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: This was an incredible mission to have these two astronauts,
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: Barry Butch Wilmore and Sonny Williams return home safely. It's
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: a triumph for SpaceX, It's a triumph for the Trump
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: administration and for America.
• 34:35
  Speaker 15: Yeah, no question. And can someone get that woman a
• 34:37
  Speaker 15: hair tie please? I've been seeing her for a year
• 34:41
  Speaker 15: with her hair up like that. Like, I can't start
• 34:43
  Speaker 15: thinking about that. Laura's or Donald Cliff, Oh my god,
• 34:46
  Speaker 15: we need more cow bells. Oh, it's I can think about. Look,
• 34:51
  Speaker 15: you know SpaceX right versus NASA. I mean, the numbers are.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: So stark, it's unbelievable.
• 35:00
  Speaker 15: SpaceX is ten times faster and twice as cheap as NASA.
• 35:07
  Speaker 15: SpaceX has one percent overruns on their projects.
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: NASA has ninety percent.
• 35:13
  Speaker 15: Okay, and they keep banging on Elon Musk. This is
• 35:17
  Speaker 15: the man who created three industries, not three companies, three industries,
• 35:23
  Speaker 15: and not like three like cottage industries, electronic payments, electric cars,
• 35:28
  Speaker 15: private space industry. This is the guy worked on He
• 35:32
  Speaker 15: might be the most accomplished man in human history, Yet
• 35:36
  Speaker 15: they don't want him running a department in the government.
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: This is what the problem is with Democrats reader.
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: It is, and it just occurred to me.
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: This entire mission just tells you so much about Biden's
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: America compared to Trump's America. All that costs and expenditure,
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: with NASA sending to these two astronauts for a week,
• 35:59
  Speaker 4: having them stressed for close to ten months, Biden administration
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: refusing Elon Musk's help to bring them back earlier because
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: they thought it would be a boost for Elon Musk
• 36:09
  Speaker 4: and Trump if it happened during the election campaign. So
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: it just speaks of the big bureaucracy, waste, inefficiency, in competence.
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: And you would think Elon Musk.
• 36:21
  Speaker 4: With this achievement and then the others you noted, would
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: be a hero. But among the left he is as
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: hated as Donald Trump. These days, they're attacking Tesla dealerships,
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: they're vandalizing random tesla's. Trump is calling these attacks a
• 36:37
  Speaker 4: form of domestic terrorism.
• 36:39
  Speaker 11: Do you consider this an act of dynastic I think, sir, Why,
• 36:43
  Speaker 11: I think that if and when they catch the people,
• 36:46
  Speaker 11: and I hope they do.
• 36:46
  Speaker 16: The good thing is they have a lot of cameras
• 36:48
  Speaker 16: in those places, and they've got some already having to
• 36:51
  Speaker 16: do with that I think that you will find out
• 36:53
  Speaker 16: that they're paid by people that are very highly political
• 36:56
  Speaker 16: on the left army.
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: The New York Post reports and t Tesla protests, some
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: of them are being fueled by a Democratic mega Dona,
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: whose ex husband is one of their mask's closest pals.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: So that sounds a little bit personal.
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: But I'm not suggesting she's behind any of these five
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: bombings or acts of vandalism. But the destruction and the
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: activism that's turned into violenca is quite disturbing and almost
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: reminiscent of what we saw during that Summer of Love
• 37:28
  Speaker 4: with the BLM riots.
• 37:31
  Speaker 15: Yeah, it is disturbing, and we're gonna see a lot
• 37:34
  Speaker 15: more of it, unfortunately. Look, the Democrats, there's such two
• 37:39
  Speaker 15: faced hypocrites. It really makes me sick, right, Haiti Elon Musk.
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: But they love their billionaires.
• 37:44
  Speaker 15: They love their Jeff Bezos and George Soros and Jbi
• 37:48
  Speaker 15: Prisker and Tom Steiers and I.
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Can go on and on.
• 37:50
  Speaker 15: Their list of billionaires is long, maybe longer than the
• 37:54
  Speaker 15: Republicans list.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're going after yeah, and they're going out
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: for Elon Musk.
• 38:00
  Speaker 15: Look, the President used that term domestic terrorism very specifically right,
• 38:06
  Speaker 15: because while there's no actual federal crime for domestic terrorism,
• 38:10
  Speaker 15: thirty three out of the fifty states, in fact, do
• 38:14
  Speaker 15: have it listed as a certain crime.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: And what you're gonna find is you're gonna get a.
• 38:18
  Speaker 15: Hefty, hefty sentence if you're convicted under that for the same,
• 38:22
  Speaker 15: essentially the same.
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: Offense you're burning a car.
• 38:25
  Speaker 15: You know, just on the street. Normally you might get
• 38:27
  Speaker 15: a few months in prison.
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: Burn a car because you're trying to make a.
• 38:30
  Speaker 15: Political statement and scare people and create terror in your community.
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: You might get ten years to life.
• 38:36
  Speaker 15: So they're using that very specifically, and I'm all for it,
• 38:39
  Speaker 15: and I think if yeah, the BLM riots, those are
• 38:41
  Speaker 15: all frankly, even on the right, I want to see
• 38:44
  Speaker 15: all if you're committing acts of terror, I don't care
• 38:47
  Speaker 15: if you're from from a jiehattist in the Middle East
• 38:51
  Speaker 15: or you're in the United States, you will pay the price.
• 38:55
  Speaker 15: And I expect them that to happen to.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: These people now.
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: Gavin Newsom has ambitions to be resident, but the California
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: governor's reckless economic mismanagement is causing more problems for his homestate.
• 39:06
  Speaker 4: He's now asking for an additional two point eight billion
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: because California's health system has been overwhelmed by illegal immigrants. Army,
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: how can you have his handout for more funding when
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: this problem is entirely self inflicted.
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's unbelievable.
• 39:25
  Speaker 15: Look why the Democrats want to spend money, you know,
• 39:29
  Speaker 15: ultimately what they're looking to create a class of people
• 39:33
  Speaker 15: dependent on the government, who will be an underclass who
• 39:36
  Speaker 15: will always vote Democratic. It's political power, pure and simple.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: It's disgusting. Okay, California. I think a lot of people
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: don't realize.
• 39:46
  Speaker 15: Last year California pastor Law saying that medical which is
• 39:50
  Speaker 15: the state Medicare system, will cover illegal immigrants. This is
• 39:55
  Speaker 15: causing the California taxpayer ten billion do extra a year. Right,
• 40:02
  Speaker 15: what's a billion here and a billionaire between friends? Right,
• 40:04
  Speaker 15: soon enough, we'll talking about real money. And the dirty secret,
• 40:08
  Speaker 15: by the way, is this not only costing California taxpayers
• 40:11
  Speaker 15: is actually caught it. It's actually costing federal taxpayers because
• 40:14
  Speaker 15: of this loophole in federal reimbursement for medical So good luck,
• 40:21
  Speaker 15: by the way, continuing to try to pass this burden
• 40:24
  Speaker 15: off the federal taxpayer. With Donald Trump in office and
• 40:27
  Speaker 15: the Republicans controlling the House and the Senate. I think
• 40:30
  Speaker 15: they're gonna find a way to close this loophole very soon.
• 40:33
  Speaker 15: In California, you're gonna be having to carry this burden
• 40:37
  Speaker 15: all on your own. Now, this is a warning for Democrats.
• 40:40
  Speaker 15: I know you're gonna think I'm crazy. You're gonna think
• 40:42
  Speaker 15: I'm unhinged. Wan I tell you this, California is not
• 40:46
  Speaker 15: lost to the Republicans.
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: Okay, this is not This is the way the political
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: system works.
• 40:50
  Speaker 15: It ebbs and it flows, and sometimes ebbs and flows
• 40:53
  Speaker 15: over periods of decades. It truly does. But it can
• 40:56
  Speaker 15: turn around, and I think you're gonna push it to
• 40:59
  Speaker 15: a where California voters are gonna say, enough, we cannot
• 41:05
  Speaker 15: stand this anymore. Okay, and a war should event may
• 41:08
  Speaker 15: in fact be the thirty billion dollars, maybe up to
• 41:13
  Speaker 15: fifty billion dollars that California taxpayers are gonna have to
• 41:17
  Speaker 15: pay for the California wildfires because of democratic and competence.
• 41:21
  Speaker 15: Layered that with all these other budget shortfalls that we're
• 41:25
  Speaker 15: talking about, I think you're going to find that the
• 41:28
  Speaker 15: Democrats not only have a massive problem nationally, but in
• 41:33
  Speaker 15: California and other states as well.
• 41:37
  Speaker 4: Either a genius who's picking up a trend before anybody else,
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: or I'm going to say you're crazy, because California is lost.
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: In my mind, it's a one party state at.
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: The Barbado the former.
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: Well, it's it's the demographic changes there have been stuck
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: and I do wonder whether it could ever be a
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: republic can state again, given how the demographics have changed.
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: But you know what, we'll.
• 42:04
  Speaker 4: Wait and see, and if you've called it, I will
• 42:08
  Speaker 4: acknowledge your brilliance. Just on Gavin uism quickly, who is
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: the next leader of the Democrats? They seem to be
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: completely ruddless now, the suggestions that AOC is a potential leader,
• 42:22
  Speaker 4: I mean that would be mad. But you've got political
• 42:24
  Speaker 4: pundits even saying that you seem to have the most extreme,
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: loudest voices who are setting the agenda right now? Who
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: do you see as the next leader who could be
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: a likely presidential candidate for them?
• 42:38
  Speaker 15: Look, actually, it at poor surveying Democrats and who they
• 42:43
  Speaker 15: support for the next leader.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: And you said AOC.
• 42:45
  Speaker 15: I think you said the kind of almost tongue in cheek,
• 42:48
  Speaker 15: But she's the leader in the compouse right now. She
• 42:50
  Speaker 15: had the largest pre Senate share of Let's not forget
• 42:54
  Speaker 15: by the way, you know how crazy the Democrats are.
• 42:57
  Speaker 15: Biden one denomination and became resident ultimately, but he was
• 43:02
  Speaker 15: losing to Bernie Sanders.
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: He was going to lose to Bernie.
• 43:07
  Speaker 7: Said.
• 43:07
  Speaker 15: He only won because a single congress person influential in
• 43:12
  Speaker 15: South Carolina decided to back him publicly, and that changed
• 43:16
  Speaker 15: the tide for Biden.
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: Otherwise we would have.
• 43:19
  Speaker 15: Had Comrade Bernie as the head of the Democratic Party,
• 43:22
  Speaker 15: so it was not so crazy. I think these crazy
• 43:24
  Speaker 15: leftists are going to take over the Democratic Party. They've
• 43:26
  Speaker 15: already won the theology of the party, no question about that,
• 43:30
  Speaker 15: So why shouldn't they have political power as well.
• 43:34
  Speaker 4: President Alexandria Acasia Cortez, I can't wait to say that
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: it's never going to happen.
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: Americans will never be.
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: That crazy ever, Amy Horowitz, that give you your time
• 43:44
  Speaker 4: to die. Always a player still to come close to
• 43:48
  Speaker 4: remove a Pride program from the Victorian public libraries.
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: Ben mccartha Joints welcome back.
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: Joining me now is the Victorian Shadow Minister for Scrutiny
• 44:08
  Speaker 4: of Government, Bev MacArthur.
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: Bev.
• 44:10
  Speaker 4: We open tonight's program with the explosive corruption allegations involving
• 44:15
  Speaker 4: premierges Into Allen and the Police Minister. Do you believe
• 44:19
  Speaker 4: Police Commissioner Shane Patton and Deputy Commissioner Neil Patterson were
• 44:24
  Speaker 4: sacked because they were honest about the crime crisis in
• 44:27
  Speaker 4: this state?
• 44:29
  Speaker 9: Well, Rita, these are very serious, unprecedented allegations that must
• 44:35
  Speaker 9: be investigated fully.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: The government clearly.
• 44:38
  Speaker 9: Has a lot of questions to answer, and it's unheard
• 44:41
  Speaker 9: of that such senior former major public servants would launch
• 44:48
  Speaker 9: this pace against the government. So the government really has
• 44:54
  Speaker 9: to come to groups with exactly what they did do.
• 44:57
  Speaker 9: And you know the fact that these two gentlemen have
• 45:00
  Speaker 9: gone to ieback is unbelievable.
• 45:05
  Speaker 4: Do you have faith that the process in IBACK is
• 45:08
  Speaker 4: going to uncover precisely what happened and with a collusion
• 45:13
  Speaker 4: corruption took place here?
• 45:16
  Speaker 9: Well, Rita, we don't have a lot of choice. We
• 45:19
  Speaker 9: have to hope that IBACK does its job properly, fairly, openly, transparently,
• 45:27
  Speaker 9: and of course that's what we'll be calling for. These
• 45:31
  Speaker 9: allegations have to be very thoroughly investigated and we don't
• 45:35
  Speaker 9: need any coat inquiry type activities where I don't recall,
• 45:39
  Speaker 9: I don't remember, I don't do email.
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: Well, this is the fear that these inquiries and investigations
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: in Victoria don't often amount too much, and we really
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: don't have a fuller picture of precisely what happened. We'll
• 45:56
  Speaker 4: let this process play out, but certainly crime is a
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: huge issue in this state. What is the Liberal party approach,
• 46:05
  Speaker 4: because we know where the Labor stands on this issue,
• 46:07
  Speaker 4: that have recently pledged to reform and get tougher on crime,
• 46:12
  Speaker 4: but we have seen under Labor just an explosion in
• 46:17
  Speaker 4: crimes like home invasions, car jackings, and so many people
• 46:22
  Speaker 4: no longer feel safe in their own homespav.
• 46:25
  Speaker 9: Well exactly, and today or maybe today, but tomorrow definitely
• 46:31
  Speaker 9: in the Upper House we'll be debating their so called
• 46:35
  Speaker 9: tough bail laws. I think these are the bail laws
• 46:39
  Speaker 9: you bring in when you don't want to really bring
• 46:41
  Speaker 9: in the bail laws because they're not really tough. But
• 46:45
  Speaker 9: certainly the Coalition has put up numerous proposals to ensure
• 46:51
  Speaker 9: that Victorians are safe and the bail is only given
• 46:57
  Speaker 9: at the first instance, So this government's not serious about this.
• 47:02
  Speaker 9: These bail laws won't even come into effect quite sometimes,
• 47:07
  Speaker 9: so they're not tough. They could be much better, and
• 47:11
  Speaker 9: we've tried to make them better. We'll try and amend
• 47:14
  Speaker 9: them to make sure it is better, but this government's
• 47:18
  Speaker 9: not serious.
• 47:21
  Speaker 4: Now, before you go, BEV, you've established a petition to
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: end the rollout of the Rainbow Libraries Toolkit in Victorian
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: State libraries. This is a Labor Party initiative that provides
• 47:33
  Speaker 4: all sorts of guidance and instructions to library staff.
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: Tell me why you're opposing this program.
• 47:41
  Speaker 9: Well, last year it was put to me by a
• 47:44
  Speaker 9: number of people that they were very concerned about libraries
• 47:48
  Speaker 9: which come under my portfolio. Basically because I'm also the
• 47:51
  Speaker 9: shadow mians of the local government and local governments largely
• 47:56
  Speaker 9: control libraries. This propose all was being rolled out. Now
• 48:02
  Speaker 9: it's curious as to why it's even needed, because you know,
• 48:06
  Speaker 9: a library's not a welcoming safe place already. Librarians and
• 48:12
  Speaker 9: parents who take their children, they're not capable of ensuring
• 48:16
  Speaker 9: everybody is welcomed and treated properly. It's sort of rather
• 48:22
  Speaker 9: disingenuous to suggest the librarians and need some sort of indoctrination.
• 48:27
  Speaker 9: And so anyway, a constituent author a petition which I
• 48:32
  Speaker 9: happily sponsored. And in our system of democracy here in Victoria,
• 48:37
  Speaker 9: such as it is, if over two thousand people physically
• 48:41
  Speaker 9: sign a petition, it triggers a further debate in the Parliamentally,
• 48:45
  Speaker 9: five thousand people physically signed a petition calling on this
• 48:51
  Speaker 9: toolkit to be set aside. I don't think libraries need
• 48:56
  Speaker 9: to be places of indoctrination. Maybe the money would be
• 49:00
  Speaker 9: better spent on making sure all our children could read,
• 49:03
  Speaker 9: write and add up, and the libraries could be places
• 49:08
  Speaker 9: of quiet reflection, not indoctrination.
• 49:13
  Speaker 4: Well, what a concept that would be wonderful, the children
• 49:16
  Speaker 4: reading and writing properly and libraries being stripped of political activism.
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: That is a fantastic planning. You're right, I had a
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: good look at this toolkit.
• 49:27
  Speaker 4: It is just radical LGBTQ activism masquerading as an inclusive
• 49:34
  Speaker 4: program when it's actually fairly confronting I would say for
• 49:38
  Speaker 4: the majority of the population.
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: Bevan MacArthur, always a pleasure. Thanks for your time tonight.
• 49:43
  Speaker 9: Thanks Reta.
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: That's it from me.
• 49:46
  Speaker 4: Up Next is Newsnight.
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: I'll see you at eleven tomorrow. Good night,
